Libby & her BEST friend Jasmine are both 8 now!!

Libby is so lucky to have a great family who love & support her!
After her baptism we had a fun party at our house. She really was spoiled with such nice gifts! She truly was SO excited about everything she got!


She is so happy to have her own scriptures.

Another one of her favorites was from her cousin John...he wrapped it like a guitar & it was a Taylor Swift poster!!

My mom made her a frame with a poem with her name.

Her 4th of July doll.

Her baptism cake.

Tyler didn't need a plate!

He LOVED Libby's birthday cake!!

Then the party continued that night!!


Her traditional cheesecake birthday cake....her shirt said, "miss Liberty"!!

Another tradition...all the cousins with their glow necklaces!

This year grandma gave them all cowboy hats too!It kinda looks like space cowboy!!

Our funny Tyler man!

John & Josh
The hat didn't fit John because of his nice Mohawk!!


He dyed it red & white for Libby's birthday!!
I'm not sure who had more fun with the hats the kids or the adults!!

It looks like her birthday was a hit! She looks beautiful in her white dress. I am jealous that she gets to celebrate her birthday on the 4th with all the celebration that is going on it would feel like it was just for me! What a lucky girl!
